The travel series “Conan O’Brien Must Go” has been renewed for a second season on Max. Warner Bros. Discovery made the announcement during their upfront presentation to advertisers in New York on Wednesday.
The upcoming season will feature six episodes, an increase from the four episodes in the first season. Conan O’Brien, known for his humor and adventurous spirit, shared his excitement in a statement:
“This latest travel show has been so fun and rewarding that I suspected it was all a cruel prank. My apologies in advance to the next six countries.”
In the first season, O’Brien traveled to Norway, Thailand, Argentina, and Ireland, surprising people he had met through his podcast, “Conan O’Brien Needs a Fan.” The show’s unique blend of comedy and travel has resonated with audiences.
All aboard!

Nina Rosenstein, executive vice president of HBO programming, late night & specials, commented on the show’s success:
“Conan’s ridiculousness knows no bounds. Our audience told us in no uncertain terms that four episodes of ‘Conan O’Brien Must Go’ is not nearly enough. To which we say, be careful what you wish for.”
The series is executive produced by O’Brien and Jeff Ross and produced by Conaco. Upon its release in April, it received widespread critical acclaim.
O’Brien’s TBS talk show ended in 2021 after an impressive 11-year run with over 1,500 episodes. He previously hosted “Late Night with Conan O’Brien” and had a brief stint on “The Tonight Show with Conan O’Brien.” Currently, he hosts the popular podcast “Conan O’Brien Needs a Friend” and its offshoot, “Conan O’Brien Needs a Fan.”
